 | | The Khruschev administraiton had attempted to remove all evidence of the atrocity, building a road over the great ravine, Babi Yar, northwest of Kiev, which contained the corpses of those destroyed. |
 | | More a cantata than a symphony, Op.113 is in five sections, each based on a Yvtushenko poem: Babi Yar: Adagio, Humor: Allegretto, In the Store: Adagio, Fears: Adagio, A career: Allegretto. |
 | | First performed to a wildly enthusiastic audience on December 18, 1962, the work was stifled until a new version with "alterations" by Yvtushenko appeared at a Moscow performance of November 20,1965 (this live performance may be found on Everest LP 3181). |
